My Pet Merman Is a King

Marin was born with a crippled leg and spent years chasing the wrong love—a beautiful merman who never truly chose her. Then she brings home a mysterious silver-haired merman from a forgotten aquarium, marked as defective but quietly devoted, tender, and full of hidden depths. As her jealous ex comes back into her life and the ocean edges toward war, Marin is forced to face a painful truth: the one everyone fears may be the safer heart to trust, while the one she once loved may be the real monster.
